About Selina

Selina Wigmore uses a psychodynamic approach to help people understand how past experiences shape their present. She aims to create a calm space where clients feel heard and respected. Selina works in a way that helps people spot repeating patterns and consider different choices. She wants people to move from merely existing to actually living. Selina draws on six years of practice in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. She focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and parenting pressures. In sessions Selina pays attention to patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices. Once those patterns are clearer she helps clients try out new responses. The work often includes looking at feelings like shame, guilt, jealousy or emptiness and how they affect day-to-day decisions. She also offers help with attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, dissociation and eating or food-related issues. Career worries, ageing questions and family problems are part of the range she addresses. Sessions are offered in English and are available online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Selina works collaboratively with each person to shape goals and practical next steps. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions to suit their schedule.

Psychodynamic work online and how it can help

Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on how earlier relationships and experiences influence current feelings and behaviour. It helps people notice repeating patterns, understand why they happen and try new ways of relating to themselves and others. This approach is often chosen for worries about attachment, abandonment, shame, and long-standing relationship difficulties.

In online sessions Selina will work collaboratively to identify which approach fits best for each person. She discusses goals, preferences and practical needs and together they choose whether to focus on past patterns, present coping or a mix of both. Deciding on the approach is part of the first conversations rather than a one-off decision.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer typing or want ongoing written contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel.
